Summary
Spyware is hidden software installed on your computer without your knowledge or consent. While some advertising software, known as adware, is installed with user permission as compensation for using a website or program, spyware infiltrates your system secretly and can cause various problems. Understanding and removing spyware is crucial for maintaining your computer’s performance.
